Government secretary Lerotholi Pheko has announced a scaling down of government services due to the current surge of Covid-19 in the country.

In a circular savingram today the GS said government services have been put to a halt in the face of the prevailing Covid-19 infections and fatalities.

Services will be offered on a limited basis for two weeks starting on the 11th to the 23rd of January 2021. This is to allow for the traffic that is caused by migrants who are getting back to work in South Africa.
